Rental Equipment for Engineering and Architecture Projects

Engineering and architecture projects require rugged, reliable heavy equipment to complete various tasks quickly, accurately and precisely. For many companies, renting is the most practical and cost-effective solution for acquiring the right equipment for each project phase. 

At Herc Rentals, we have extensive experience serving the needs of companies throughout the construction industry, including architecture and engineering firms. We offer high-performing rental equipment for engineering and architecture projects that will optimize your results while lowering operating costs. 

How We Support Your Project Life Cycle

We're here to support your engineering and architecture projects from site planning to commissioning. During the crucial preconstruction and takeoff phase, you can feel confident that you're choosing the appropriate equipment that aligns with project logistics and phasing. We'll also assist during procurement and mobilization by providing priority fleet reservation, precise delivery scheduling, site safety setup and operator training services.

Many of our rentals include telematics, which uses GPS tracking, sensors and telecommunication technology to collect and transmit real-time data, as well as utilization reporting and other technology tools for optimized project execution. During closeout and demobilization, we offer rapid pickup, cleaning, compliance documentation and lessons-learned reviews.

The Benefits of Renting Equipment for Engineering and Architecture

The benefits of construction equipment rental for architects and engineers include:

• Access to innovative products: Many of our rentals are late-model machines and tools. You can choose products with the latest features and technologies to optimize project performance.
• Financial and budgeting flexibility: Architects and engineers must often adhere to tight budgeting constraints. Renting provides additional flexibility because there are no long-term financial commitments or large down payments required. 
• Adaptability: These professionals can easily adjust their project's equipment needs as project changes occur. This is especially helpful for short-term projects or when performing specialized tasks requiring specific machine or tool types.
• Better performance: Renting enables you to optimize performance by choosing the most appropriate equipment on a project-by-project basis.
• Chance to try before you buy: If you're thinking of purchasing, you can rent it first to ensure it's the right fit for your business. 
• Reduced operating costs: You'll minimize or avoid many of the expenses associated with equipment ownership, such as maintenance, repairs, storage and depreciation. 
• Competitive edge: Acquire equipment quickly and conveniently, ensuring you can always say “yes” to customer requests and potentially lucrative business opportunities.
